Brahms x Reader part 3 (final)
Light shined through the windows of the manor, illuminating the absolute destruction caused by a broken man. When it hit day five of you being gone, he absolutely lost it, trashed the entire house. He wanted you back, he needed you back.
Brahms wasnât one to expression emotions other than the negative ones, he knew he loved you. You were his. He thought he made that obvious, that he needed you to stay with him. Apparently not. He laid next to the piano, curled up in the floor. That was your favorite place to be in the house, at the piano.Â
You sat in a cafĂŠ, watching the rain fall outside. It was very early in the morning, meaning not too many were out and about. You looked in the direction of the manor. You had to go back there, you knew that. You couldnât imagine how Brahms was doing right now, you were positive he was absolutely vivid. Hell, so were you, but you werenât as free to show it. You glanced back at the man who was at the counter, ordering breakfast.Â
This man was your father. Doesnât seem too bad right? I suppose it normally wouldnât be too awful, but considering the circumstances... In short, he kidnapped you.
He and your mother had divorced when you were a small child, almost three years old. You donât know too much about the details, but your mother won custody over you, you couldn't see your father. The reason for that being he was far from being a good father. He was a true psychopath in hiding, and damn good at it. Your mother tried to keep you safe from him, but she wasnât here now.
You were out for your weekly shopping trip, and then there he was. You froze. You wanted to run, your brain screamed at you to run, everything in you was begging you to run, except your legs.Â
You made eye contact with him. You watched as the twisted grin grew on his face. He lifted his shirt just enough so you could see the knife hidden away.Â
Then he had you. You couldnât get away. You were stuck. You werenât one to believe in a God, but praying seemed like your best option at this point.Â
The evil man that you hated to call Dad came back over with a box full of donut holes. âLets go,â he grumbled.
Reluctantly, you stood up and walked out of the little cafĂŠ with him. He always made you walk in front of him or beside him so he could keep an eye on you. He knew you would try to escape eventually, and when that time came, he would kill you. He told you that himself. If you want to live, you had to stay with him. Forever. And when he dies, you will die too.Â
You planned on trying to escape at some point. The fact was, you were probably going to die at the hands of this man who snatched you anyway, might as well make an attempt to go back to your home.
You tried to relax as much as possible, though another thought that plagued your mind was Brahms was probably almost out of food, and he probably hadn't been eating a lot because most of the food needed to be cooked and Brahms sucked at adulting.Â
You were now back at his flat, waiting for a good time to try and make your escape. You've thought about it a lot. You will probably do it around lunch, he always has you make an omelet for him every other day, and today was one of those days. You would try to hit him with the pan and make a run for it.
You barely touched the pastries that you father set in front of you. Nerves killed your appetite, they had been for the past few days. The asshole before you glared at the half eaten elephant ear before turning his glare to you.Â
âAre you going to eat?â
You glared back at him silently, refusing to talk to him.Â
He grumbled to himself before snatching the pastries away. âFine, you wonât get to eat then.â You began walking to his room. âDonât forget about my omelet.â
As he went into his room, you looking longingly at the door that had five locks holding it shut. Youâve thought about trying to escape while he hid away in his room before, but it made too much noise to be successful. Thatâs why he had to be knocked out cold, just long enough to get out the door and get back to Brahms. That was all that mattered.
A few hours passed and finally it was omelet time. You grabbed the pan you always used for the omelet and awkwardly moved around, trying to make it sound like you were doing something productive. After a couple minutes passed, it was finally time for your plan to be put into action.
âDad!â you shouted, trying not to gag as you said the name. âThe stove isn't turning on!â
You heard a frustrated groan before there was some rusting heard from his room. Finally the door opened and he was on his way to the kitchen. As he walked into the kitchen, you pulled the pan off the stove which you had turned on, a little plan B is the pan didnât work too well: burn him.
You watched as he inspected the stove, his back was to you.Â
He stuck his hand over the part of the stove you turned on. âWell it feels like itâs working just-â
That man was out cold after the amount of force you used for that. The goodness in you worried you might have cracked his skull... but no time for worrying!Â
You quickly scurried over to the door and fumbled with the locks. There was only one lock with a padlock and you memorized the numbers within two days.Â
You were out that door in mere seconds, running, running, and running. Everything screamed at you to stop. Your lungs cried for air, your legs and arms begged for a small break, but not even the strange glares you got as you ran by people would stop you. You had to get to Brahms.
Once you reached the road that lead up to the mansion, you slowed down to a walk and allowed yourself to relax, but only a little bit. You continued to drag yourself to the manor, just a few more miles.
The sun was beating on you and the blisters on your feet felt like absolute hell, but you were finally home.
The trudged up to the door, tears pricking your eyes. You slowly pushed open the door, and a gasp left your lips.
The place looked like it had been abandoned for years, everything was everywhere. Panic began to set it.
You rushed in and looked around, your anxiety bubbling fiercely. âBrahms?! Are you okay?!â
You walked into the room where the piano sat. Sadness filled you as you saw Brahms, asleep on the floor.Â
You rushed over to him and was about to wake him up until you noticed something you should have noticed a lot sooner. His mask had fallen off.
You stared at the red scars that trailed down his face to his shoulder. You bit your lip as you tried to fight back fresh tears.Â
âIâm so sorry,â you whispered. You ran a hand through his curly locks.
You quickly pulled your hand away in shock as his eyes started to flutter open.Â
âB-Brahms,â you whispered, not wanting to shake him up too much. âAre you okay?â
You watched as his lips parted slightly and his eyes widened in disbelief. Then anger showed itself on his features.Â
He pushed himself up and threw himself on to you, throwing his hands on your neck.
You weakly pulled at his hands, still exhausted from the jog you were not prepared for. You tried to talk to him, but his anger clouded his sight and thoughts.
âPlease,â you struggled out. âB-Brahms...â
Finally, as your vision was slowly leaving you, Brahmsâ features softened and he quickly let go of your neck.Â
You stared at the ceiling as fresh air entered your lungs. You were absolutely stunned that that had just happened.Â
Soft whimpering caught your attention. You forced yourself to glance at Brahms. You felt immediate sympathy as you saw him trying to put the mask back on. Suppressing a sigh, you forced yourself on to your knees.
âHun,â you mumbled, getting Brahms attention.Â
He looked at you, his feeling of helplessness evident.Â
You tried your best to smile at him to comfort him. You reached your arms out. âCome here.â
Brahms practically threw himself into your arms, and sobbed. He wailed.Â
All you could do was rub his back and hug tighter.Â
âWhere were you,â you heard him whisper as his sobbing began to die down.Â
You swallowed thickly as you recalled the past few days. âIâll tell you later, why donât we go take a nap first? I know it isnât part of the schedule, but I think we deserve it.â
Brahms nodded slowly, and both of you went to his room. He curled into a ball and you laid down behind him, wrapping an arm around him, nuzzling into his neck.Â
Besides the fact that this man almost killed you, you were so happy to be back with him.
